A Perfect Day

In my opinion, October is the best month of the year. Halloween, pumpkin carving, apple cider, fall colors, perfect weather. It just doesn't get better...until now.

Our friends, Brett and Lauren invited us on a day trip to Riverhead, New York for some apple picking and wine. Being from Arizona, apple picking was something people did in movies. I had only hoped that someday I would actually get to do a little pickin' myself. So, this Saturday the four of us set out to Wickham Farms where we boarded a tractor...

and happily found ourselves in a beautiful apple orchard!

Mikey led us on our quest for the perfect apple.

Just like the movies ;)

Halfway through our picking adventure we all got a little hungry...

I couldn't get over how random and beautiful this tree was amongst the apple trees.

Our pickins'.

Next, it was on to Krupski Pumpkin Farm to check out the haunted corn maze and pumpkin patch.

The maze didn't seem very scary until...

this skeleton popped out at us and chased us out of the maze...

and into the pumpkin patch.

Once we all picked out our favorite pumpkins it was time for some wine and snacks.

The perfect end to a perfect day.
